You should be fine with a "flat ribbon" like the one on this page:

It's HEAVY to post so maybe you could pick one up locally.

Hi.

I use profigold 10m SCART cables - I find them excellent, not that expensive (£50 for a 10m cable).

I have no probs runnning a Sky Digibox on a 15m version of this cable, so 10m would give you no probs at all

I have tried a couple of bog standard 10m Scart Leads.

One that was normal type scart, and the other which was a composite lead that attached to a scart adapter at the end.

The PQ on both was absolutely terrible.

The macro blocking was present on a 14" CRT TV. On a 32" LCD the PQ would likely be unwatchable.

The way I have my Sky fixed up now is by a High Quality 6m Belkin Aerial Cable.

This cable is much thinner than a Scart Cable and due to the small Aerial tip it can be drilled through walls to make the needed length smaller.

However if Scart is a neccessity. Which I have not tried their Scart leads. I have tried Profigolds 5m VGA cable and the quality is superb.

I would therefore recommend either these or a Scart lead by QED for this purpose.
